“Trading is fun!”

They have great courses for those who are rookie traders and also for those who know a thing or two about trading. Before I signed up to Learn to Trade seminars I was a trader for one and a half year. My results were pretty ok, I think. However, only now (after Learn to Trade seminars) I know what I should change and how I can improve as a trader.

I paid my deposit but had an urgent family situation arise and needed a refund. They refused to answer my emails, did not return my phone calls and blocked me on FB. Now my daughter is stuck in a domestic violence situation because I can't give her the money to get out. Because these greedy mongrels won't refund my deposit.

They helped me learn all the nuances and secrets of stock trading. Very passionate and well-educated teachers did not leave any question unanswered. After the course I began to understand the processes behind the stock markets and use them in my favour. Highly recommended for those who are just starting out with trading.

I've just finished their fantastic course and I can definitely tell that it was worth it. The coaches were fantastic.
I've learned a lot about trading and I just feel ready to take on the trading world and make money! I just know that I will succeed!

Tip for consumers:
Sign up for the beginners course, it is way longer and better than the one for the advanced traders.

What brought me to trading was that I went to the National Achievers, I heard what Greg Secker had to say and it made more than sense. I wanted to make dollars so I was one of the ones who ran!

I had zero experience prior to this. Ive done roughly 4 weeks on and off nights pulling on a fake account. Now Im real and live and its a bit different which is good.

The best result is obviously meeting you guys and getting to understand the minds behind whats happening in the business first hand. Also, understanding the education more in depth and the real time trading, it becomes real and I look forward to seeing the little graph go up.

Trading was something that was interesting to me for a couple of years but I was always afraid that I will lose money on it. Fortunately, I found out about Learn to Trade and I took part in their course - it was worth it! I've learned a lot about trading from them and it is quite easy, actually!

Stay away. They take your money without any conscience. No integrity, no morals.

I recently had an exceedingly disappointing encounter with Learn To Trade (LTT), and I feel compelled to share my experience to shed light on their questionable practices.
From the beginning, the company's aggressive sales tactics were not only overwhelming but also manipulative. The promised "live" webinar turned out to be nothing more than a pre-recorded sales pitch, enticing attendees with an A$10,000 trading account and a half-day training. The A$147 I paid for the half-day workshop only led to another extended sales presentation, devoid of any meaningful educational content. The initially promised A$10,000 trading account was conveniently forgotten, replaced by relentless pressure to pay an additional A$8,995 for smartcharts and training, coupled with an ongoing monthly fee of A$149.
I decided to pay a deposit of A$1,000 over the phone with the assurance of a full refund within a 14-day cooling-off period if I chose not to proceed.
Upon reading numerous scathing reviews, I discovered that the initial A$8,995 charge was just the tip of the iceberg. Learn To Trade allegedly pushes for additional payments ranging from A$20,000 to A$40,000 after completing basic training – supposedly advanced courses for those aspiring to become serious traders.
My attempts to secure a refund through Kelly Deene, the Client Service Manager, went unanswered, leaving me frustrated and betrayed. Even Kas, who facilitated the deposit, directed me to email info@... for a refund, but my emails remained unanswered for days, and subsequent calls to Kas were ignored.

In my pursuit of resolution, I resorted to writing an online review here, which at least prompted a response from LTT on 24 Jan 2024, stating up to a 30-day timeline for my refund. However, today (7 Feb 2024), I received an email from Wendy, AdminAU at Learn to Trade, asking me to sign a Deed of Release to finalise my refund request. The conditions outlined in the document are nothing short of SHOCKING. It states things like:
- Releasing LTT from any and all actions, suits, claims, counterclaims, demands, and costs;
- Withdrawing all actions or complaints lodged externally in writing;
- Removing or withdrawing all negative online reviews, complaints, and comments;
- Keeping all information and communications confidential;
- Avoiding further contact or communications with LTT and its representatives;
- Fully indemnifying LTT against any cost, expense, claim, action, loss, damage, or injury resulting from a breach of the Deed of Release & Indemnity, etc.
(Screenshot of the doc conditions attached)
To discover that my refund is only to be granted upon removing genuine reviews of my Learn to Trade experience is both appalling and indicative of the depths to which this company is willing to stoop. I am left in disbelief and am seriously considering lodging a complaint with Fair Trading.
This experience with Learn To Trade is not only regrettable but absolutely disgusting.
